General

Gold Blast off Today: Up $60.

The gold mining stocks blasted off today. The HUI was up nearly 10%. Clearly the miners are going to follow the price of gold higher. The HUI is not far from it's lows. It is still a good time to get in. Sure this could be a false breakout, but if the price of gold is heading higher, then gold mining stocks are going to participate.
I still think that the mining stocks could be one of the best investments this decade. It doesn't look like that if you look at most of the mining stock charts,... more
